Description:
Limited smoke copper cable is a portable Service cable with a characteristic limited smoke MC XHHW-2 jacket. The cable has excellent flame-retardant property that primarily defines it. Its cross-linked polythene insulator has good heat resistant. This type of cable is therefore suitable for applications in hazardous locations and punishing environments because of this tough, robust and flame retardant insulation and jacket.
Application:
Limited smoke copper cable is suitable for use in hazardous locations because of its tough MC XHHW-2 jacket. It can serve well in both wet and dry locations because its tough jacket can resist moisture, water and UV rays. Applications involving direct burial can be circuited using this cable because of its wide temperature range that can withstand the varying temperatures below the ground.
